All the members of the Gracie Sydney Brazilian Jiu Jitsu (BJJ) are very proud of Aukuso's latest performance.

Gracie Humaita Sydney made news at the Sydney Observer November edition magazine.

" Be prepared for any situation" is the headline of the article that is showing once again that "Anyone can fend an attacker if they know Self-Defense"

Rolling with a smaller training partner - By George Atton

I am a 115kg purples belt out of GSA Alexandria and I wanted to share some of my ideas when I am rolling with the smaller people in the gym. 

Firstly I need to be very aware that a sudden uncontrolled moved on my part could result in injury to my partner, also people train for a variety of reasons and having a larger partner crushing down on them for 5 minutes might not be their idea of fun. Jiu Jitsu is for life and I think it’s our responsibility to try and encourage and develop the gentle art for everyone

Surviving your first six months of Jiu Jitsu - by Paul Henningham

I?ve got strong memories of my first class: the anticipation, anxiety, confusion and exhaustion. I was one of those guys who used every ounce of strength and stamina at my disposal to try and thwart the attacks of my more experienced classmates. I was hooked pretty quickly when I discovered how easily they could control and submit me.
